Meet the Owner
Kristin Lignowski – Founder of Body Alchemy Studio
Hi, I’m Kristin — a lifelong caregiver, certified personal trainer, reflexology practitioner, and the heart behind Body Alchemy Studio. Originally from Wilmington, Delaware, I’ve been helping others feel better in their bodies since childhood, when I began volunteering in nursing homes at just 7 years old. That early calling to care for others never left me — it simply evolved.
After years as a military spouse, EMT, powerlifter, and wellness coach, I found my true passion in blending movement with mindfulness, strength with softness, and physical wellness with deep relaxation. That’s what Body Alchemy is all about.
Now based in La Plata, Maryland, I’ve created a space where people of all ages and walks of life can decompress, reconnect, and feel supported — whether it’s through reflexology, red light therapy, guided meditation, reiki, or a moment of stillness in our zero-gravity massage chair.
I believe in healing through comfort, connection, and intentional care — and I’m honored to offer that to my community every day.

Michael Lignowski
Co-Owner
Most of you know me as the face of Body Alchemy — but what you might not know is that I have an incredible partner behind the scenes. 💪
My husband, Michael, is the co-owner of Body Alchemy and the quiet strength that keeps everything moving. From helping with the gym buildout to brainstorming new ideas, supporting our members, and keeping our mission alive, he’s a huge part of what makes this space so special.
He believes in the vision just as much as I do — that women deserve a safe, private, empowering place to transform their health and wellness. 🖤
Michael isn’t just my biggest supporter — he’s a true partner in building this dream, and I’m so grateful for everything he brings to our community. If you see him around the gym, be sure to say hi!
